One-day Meteors

Meteors from the ancient Greek "floating in the air" - rocks reaching a height of 600 meters above sea level, in the mountains of Thessaly in northern Greece, 1-2 kilometers from the city of Kalambaka. Known since the X century, along with Athos, as one of the centers of Orthodox monasticism in Greece. The rocks were formed more than 60 million years ago and were the rocky bottom of the prehistoric sea, located on the site of the plain.

In total, throughout history, according to various sources, there were 22 or 24 monasteries along with many single cells, ascetics, chapels, hermitages, caves, gates, pillars scattered throughout the meteor mountains. Some of the monasteries were preserved as ruins.

Today there are only 6 monasteries: 4 male and 2 female. Men’s – “Transfiguration”, “Varlaam”, “Saint Nicholas Anapaussas”, “Holy Trinity”; Women’s – “Rusana or the Monastery of St. Barbara”, “St. Stephen”
